ACT Red 0.5 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable snagless with RJ45 connectors

The ACT Red 0.5 meter SFTP CAT6A patch cable is a short, high-performance network cable designed for reliable data connections. It uses full copper AWG#26 conductors, S/FTP shielding to reduce interference, and features snagless RJ-45 connectors with 50µ gold-plated contacts for consistent signal transfer in demanding networking environments.

Advantages

This CAT6A patch cable offers improved electromagnetic protection thanks to S/FTP shielding and full copper conductors for low attenuation. Snagless RJ-45 connectors protect the latch during installation and removal, while 50µ gold-plated contacts provide corrosion resistance and stable contact over time. Its compact 0.5 m length and red colour make it suitable for short interconnections and clear cable identification.

Suitable for

• Short connections between switches, patch panels and servers
• High-speed Ethernet networks up to CAT6A performance
• Data centres, server rooms and home network racks

How to use

Insert each RJ-45 connector firmly into the corresponding network ports until the latch clicks. Use the 0.5 m ACT SFTP CAT6A patch cable for short runs where minimal cable slack is required, such as between adjacent rack units or connecting devices within a single shelf. Avoid sharp bends and keep the cable away from strong electromagnetic sources for best performance.

Recommendations

For optimal performance maintain proper cable bend radius, avoid compressing the cable in tight cable management channels, and replace cables that show visible damage to the jacket or connectors.
